No More Chemo!

Hi,

I was very saddened to read your note.

First of all, I would never accept ONE physician's opinion, especially when he tells you there is no hope. I went to see 5 different doctors a few years ago,  2 in my home country,Canada, and 3 others in the U.S. before figuring out what to do. However, you mom may be too ill to travel and this may complicate the situation.

Is your mom being treated in a Cancer Center? If not, perhaps you can have her seen in one. Is there one close by? If not, perhaps you could contact someone at the nearest cancer center and go see him/her with your mom's tests results, MRI's and any other imaging films, and perhaps your doctor would agree to speak with this specialist.

When they tell us here that there is nothing to do, we always ask about experimental treatments. There may be one that your mom may qualify for. These could give hope.

Good luck to you and your mom,

G.
